Hey, German here. What the f*** are Americans doing at the other side of the Atlantic? Some of you already know this monstrosity. I did’nt. This is a Ford F650 Truck and when I stepped out of my Youtube Bubble I realized, it was marketed as the “biggest, baddest Truck on the road” for the everyday American. Are you guys serious?! Is the end goal really to drive a Monster Truck to McDs to get a McFlurry? Americas bloodiest wars have been fought in the middle east to secure oil, bombing nations to rubble. And all, for this bullshit? The excess, waste and decadence is mind boggling to me and people on Reddit seriously justifying this by “you know dude I’m 6,4ft. I don’t fit in any other vehicle” makes me go up the wall.

    When you go to war to secure oil, you fight… for oil. Maybe not bloody, but invading another country to keep oil prices low so stuff like this can exist…

      But… we didn’t invade Iraq in the First Gulf War. That was the whole point of the First Gulf War. We stopped our advance in a matter of hours after pushing over the border because the whole point was to defend Kuwait at Kuwait’s request, and with the approval of the international community, including our traditional rivals.
